This wine colors up a medium-dark ruby in the glass. It has a savory nose, while showing plenty of blackberry, black plum and black cherry. The oak spice is lovely, with clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, anise and a slight note of coffee. The palate is just as much a treat as is the nose. Dark fruit shows strongly, with a good acidity and tannic grip. It is not a brawny wine, but it is not too delicate, either. The finish lingers awhile and leaves a savory memory behind. — 5 months ago

Pride Mountain Vineyards Reserve Claret 2013, Sonoma County, California

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday.

This is a delicious Merlot based Bordeaux blend from from Sonoma County.

Full bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, chocolates, black currants, black plums, black cherries, cedar, vanilla, light earth, licorice and light coffee.

Long finish with medium tannins.

This 10-year-old is drinking very nicely now, and it will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Would be nice to visit it again in 5 years.

Showing nice complexity with a great mouthfeel. Elegant and rich. Powerful and fruit forward.

Drinking very much like a Napa Cabernet.

Good right out of the bottle and better with airtime. Good by itself or with food.

A blend of 62% Merlot, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Petit Verdot. 14% of the grapes are from Napa Valley. Aged in French oak barrels for 22 months. A small production of only 450 cases.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

Pulled this one out of the cellar. Cedar, elegant, silky, smoke and stewed plums on the nose, zesty and bright, herbaceous with ultra dry cherry cola palate. Delightful. It’s aged very well. — 10 months ago

This is very good for not much aging and the price. Lovely nose and mouthfeel. Cherry, with a bit of funky farmyard on the nose. Superb. — 5 months ago

Always a classic. Still a (relative) value. Balance, structure, texture, tension, integration and length. Just great winemaking. Benchmark Chard. — 8 months ago

Pale to mid crimson in colour with a tawny edge. Pouring from the decanter- quite tawny. Earthy fungal notes - a touch of animale. A wow palate particularly for a Village wine (actually more of a Premier Cru quality). Totally integrated oak with a fleshy sweetness. - this wine would last till its 20th Birthday. A fabulous Burgundy without the depth and complexity of a Grand Cru but at a fraction of the price of a GC. Made by the late, great Denis Mortet before his untimely passing. Probably the best village red burgundy I’ve ever tasted. — 10 months ago
